EU Eastern Enlargement
and Development Cooperation

The upcoming accession of eight post-communist states in central and eastern Europe to the EU will alter the relationship between them, the enlarged EU and the developing countries.
This issue looks back at the development of Poland,
Czech Republic and Hungary from a role of donor to
recipient and back to donor since 1989, their current
relations with the Third World, and their likely post-accession influence on the policy of the EU towards developing countries.
